Quiz! Can you name every Bayern Munich player to have played in a Champions League final this century?

Today's quiz digs deep into football heritage.

It's no secret that Bayern Munich are part of the aristocracy when it comes to the European game, as six-time champions of Europe: it all began in the 1970s with the likes of Franz Beckenbauer and Gerd Muller, continuing into the modern day with another three Champions League titles since Manchester United shocked everyone in 1999 with a last-minute comeback.

Bayern won the crown again in 2001, and were beaten finalists in 2010 and 2012, before scaling the summit a couple of times more in 2013 and 2020. It's those latter five finals that we're testing you on today, though, as we give you 10 minutes to name the 49 players who featured in at least one of those games.
